35559 Oh, Kushiel series is one of my favourite too! Loved the first trilogy the best.

Another fav UF series:

Rosemary and Rue (October Daye, #1) by Seanan McGuire A Local Habitation (October Daye, #2) by Seanan McGuire An Artificial Night (October Daye, #3) by Seanan McGuire Late Eclipses (October Daye, #4) by Seanan McGuire One Salt Sea (October Daye, #5) by Seanan McGuire Ashes of Honor (October Daye, #6) by Seanan McGuire

I'm waiting eagerly for the next book.

35559 Diane - I love that book. It was a really good contemporary at a time when there didn't seem (to me) to be that many around. I hope you like it too.

35559 I finished The Host (The Host, #1) by Stephenie Meyer just a bit earlier. I wanted to start off my account ;) It's 619 pages.

It was very good. Totally not like Twilight (and I couldn't believe it was the same author!). The only complaint I had was that you have to explicitly believe that Melanie loved Jared hook, line and sinker. I really couldn't understand why she loved him. Not really. But the author really did an outstanding job of making Melanie and Wanderer separate entities. I'm going to use this as my theme book since both Melanie & Wanderer are such strong female characters.

Has anybody else read the book or seen the movie?

Nope, no points. But they so addictive that I'm not reading!

35559 I'm working my way through Memories of Ice (Malazan Book of the Fallen, #3) by Steven Erikson (1180) pages and starting The Host (The Host, #1) by Stephenie Meyer (619) pages bringing my total to 1799 pages. I'm hoping to complete both by this weekend. Let's see.

35559 Rebecca, I just realized I can see Melissa's stats too - I'm not sure if it's different than what she can see. But currently, I see her pages number is 28,398.

35559 Melissa, you don't have to add them up. Just go to your bookshelf, on the left hand side, just below all your shelf list, there should something called stats in a smaller font. Click on it and you should see this:



Just select pages and it'll show you the number. Post it here. Hope that helps.
